This isn't authentic by any means. The Bangladesh firmware is modified to an Indian one
I'm not too happy with LPQ firmware anyways.. Reverted back to gb la4 firmware..
Thanx guys for the replies.
I mean the KIES version?
Anyone has that?

Hello Mr.impatient
Indian official ICS will be released this week in Kies.So just wait 1-2 more days.
I will not comment about that Indian ICS which is already here in some thread.
Indian official ICS release will not come through OTA.
It will be only through Kies.

I am just a little skeptic about using Odin (scared rather). And now that I'm on 2.3.6, zergRush exploit doesn't work due to which I'm unable to root. Hence waiting for the update through Kies.

I'm on the Ressurection Remix Rom by westcrip. Quite stable and way better than dear old TW thats rolled out with the ICS update from samsung.

Odin is safer than Kies in my opinion.
You can TRY the "memory crash" method when using zergRush. Just open a ton of apps and exit using the Home button instead of Back to fill up as much memory as possible (at least over 500 mb used), then use zergRush.
I don't know if it will work for you or not, but it's worth a shot.
If not, just flash a kernel that roots for you, like CF-Root or Siyah.
How the hell does it matter when you get the update.
Its the same Samsung ****!
Id say stay on GB or use CM9!
But then again thats what i think.

[Question] Stock firmware for Galaxy ace

I downloaded the stock firmware from samfirmware.com and the file includes a bootloader. I'm hesitant about using the bootloader so please enlighten me if I can flash the 3 files without using the bootloader as this may hardbrick the phone. Thnks for the quick reply.
Are you going from 2.2 to 2.3 or from 2.3 to 2.3??

Cooper.ops file is must for odin. I guess it's for bootloader or phone model identity.

Why do you want to take risk ?
If you are going from 2.2 to 2.3 include all the files, as the bootloaders for froyo and gingerbread are different.

Hey I'm Australian and own an S3.. I'm sick of Vodafone update strategy.. I want to root, what do you think?
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
Ye root it, i rooted it too, except i think i need a replacement cause my phone has a problem.
Rooting could do lots of stuff.
If you ain't that good with computers and you don't want to stress yourself finding stuffs and working on it, don't do it cause it can risk your phone and might not brick.
Otherwise it's great to root
I've had the GNex.. I just hope it's as easy. Vodafone seriously piss me off..
I think Im Gonna root it.. just regret I didn't do that the moment I got it.. cause I seriously can't be stuffed going through the whole set up process again..

flashing is just to do with odin...so

no need of rooting

You can also download latest Official Firmwares from http://samfirmware.com
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk 2
Yes. But you'll be able to do so with root too...
Many people confuse the two, so just to clarify:
Rooting means having a tiny modification in the phone's operating system so it doesn't restrict you from superuser commands.This will not affect your installed data or ability to upgrade.
Custom Roms is replacing the stock rom with a new operating system package someone else built which may or may not largely differ from Samsung's own version.

I just want an official non branded ROM .so I can get the latest updates without carrier delays .
Sent from my GT-I9300T using Tapatalk 2
There are always delays, whether carrier-, region-, or whatever-related.
You can flash the newer Rom's through Odin tough (again: the flashcounter does not increase with original ROM's) to get it as soon as the file is released.
Unbranded S1's had to wait several months for Froyo update over here...
Where can I find the latest official firmware?
Also since I'm in Australia.. does it matter what region firmware I update to? Say.. can I update to an European based firmware?

[Q] Galaxy S2 i9100 Official Android 4.1.2 Firmware

Does any one have the download link for Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean (i9100) Samsung Official Firmware? I flashed a custom rom to my Galaxy s2 without creating a firmware backup so I cannot revert or downgrade to original rom. So I was wondering if I could download official 4.1.2 firmware then I can flash it. One more thing pls: A friend of mine own a galaxy s2 i9100 and it has the same version of firmware that I am looking for, so can I make a backup of its firmware and flash it to my s2 or copy its firmware as a zip file or something.

Sammobile is all you need looking for your apropiate carrier of course.
Samobile requires premium account

No it does not. You only have to register, for free, in order to DL firmwares. Nothing premium required. Stop spreading nonsense.
Also, next parrot who posts 'Go to Samfirmware' to this thread dies. Once was enough, 3 times is ridiculous. What the hell is wrong with you people ?
I thought it was premium ..
